Finally got to play this on original hardware! It's pretty fun but doesn't last too long. I can see myself replaying this for the trick shot mode, it was quite challenging and precise when sitting away from the TV.
In contrast, Game A was boring. You shoot one or two guys and have to wait for new ones to come on screen. Game B was alright, I liked the side scrolling environment compared to Game A because the gang members were in various places instead of a straight line.
Pretty short experience, good amount of potential replay value. If you can play this with a zapper instead of emulation, it's pretty fun!

It's okay, as far as 1984 lightgun standards go. You may not get much out of it nowadays though, other than satisfying your historial curiosity. One funny thing that kept happening is me constantly accidentally shooting the cops, because with their grin and the way they hold the baton, I kept mistaking them for the bad guys. Maybe that says more about me than the game's design, but it kept happening!
